I'm a man who likes his hamburger. I was interested to find out what burger joints you recommend.
I know there are a LOT of burger joints in America that aren't in Canada, but I've seen all those commercials and I've got to know which one is actually the best.
I like Harveys burgers and Licks Burgers. Both those place have AWESOME condiments, which makes or breaks the burger. |

not a fan of wendy's. Average quality at Above average price.
If they were a little cheaper, then I'd be a bigger fan. Their salads are a rip off big time too.

I gotta go with in and out as well. I used to eat wendy's a lot and maybe it's just up here in Oregon but their quality has gone away. I used to go in and grab like 5 jr. bacon cheeseburgers and a frosty with either fries or a five piece chicken. Then after a while everytime I ate there I felt like shit afterwards. So I quit eating there. I don't really eat fast food anymore.
If any of you are ever up in Oregon make a trip to a little place called calamity Jane's and those people make a burger. |

I had an Angus Burger at Burger King today, mainly to reward the marketing scheme. It entertains me, both the self-help guru angus thing and the mock-office scenarios. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't a steak burger (big suprise), just a bigger slab of hamburger with some tangy steak sauce and onions, etc. In-N-Out is good, Wendy's is overpriced. Anything is better than McDonalds or White Castle though. |

They announced a sequel to Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle.
I guess the plot is centered around the two of them being in the bathroom for 48 hours straight.

a&w hamburgers are awesome too.
And as far as the salad thing goes, wendy's had this ceaser salad once that I had to try... and it sucked ass
Hot dogs are good too, Toronto has some great street meat outside the ball parks etc.. |

i Can't vote for Wendys because of those dumb fuck commercials they have now. "unnoficial spokesperson" ? That makes me want to unofficially kick his ass. |

Lately I've been living off the dollar menu at McDonalds...It's pretty bad for me, but it gets the job done and costs you about 3 bucks. I went fishing today with some of my friends and we had to stop in cause we all had the munchies from like fishing...I'm all for the dollar menu. Totally...i'm lovin' it...
What better time than now to discuss restaraunt advertisment. It makes me sick people. I mean, people go to fast food because they are busy and need food so bad that they will settle for what these establishments have to offer...
Anyone ever eat at a Steak 'n' Shake?
One thing that pisses me off are Steak 'n' Shake waiters...They give me the creeps...It's like, "Hi, can I get some cheese fries?" "Sure, do you want some...tabasssss...co sauce. With that?" "No, I got that bottle with the peppers and whatnot. I'll be fine..." "You want some tabasco sauce?" "No." (At this point, our waiter, who just previously announced himself as "Nick, your server tonight," stands calmly and with an air of uncertainty about him...he's wearing some type of 50's diner outfit, the hat and red checkers and the nametag...he's not saying a word, just looking at the table, more through the table actually, as if he has X-ray vision and there happend to be a dying insect clawing itself to the corner to die...He seems to be incredibly enchanted by this noble beast, he beleives that if he can just...just try...he can communitcate with it and perhaps...yes perhaps learn its ways and become a...We look at the waiter, he looks at us a bit shocked, like he just woke up naked in his parent's bed.) "How about that tabasco sauce?" He innocently inquiers while collecting the menus. "No." "Okay your food will be ready in a few minutes." (He turns, as if he should have asked you something but has forgotten what it was and you accidentally trip him. He is not mad, and returns with your food. Cheese fries, with a tiny bottle of tabasco sauce next to it.) "I thought, you know...just in case you...Needed it." (Winks twice) "Okay...thanks..." (Another awkward moment...Time, you think while terror sweeps over you like a crusty blanket...to light a smoke and make him leave. But it doesn't work. He's still there, staring at something underneath the table.) "Anything else I can do for you?" He asks, probably begging for God to make me ask for more tabasco sauce. "Yeah, do you have some crayons?" "Um...yeah I can probably get you crayons..." (He gets you crayons.)
Don't eat at Steak 'n' Shake...the foods good but the staff for the most part is uncomfortable to be around... |

I love me some burgers too!!!
Two of my favorites are the Monster Burger at Red Robin and the Widdow Maker at Claim Jumper. I also like any of the six dollar burgers at Carls. Has anyone tried that 1 lb burger yet? I was going to order it one day but I chickened out. This topic reminds me of the TIMe I ate with Liz and EnthusTIMiast and I ordered a burger Medium Rare from the restraunt we were at and they both gave me the death stare.
While on the topic of burgers, has anyone tried a Jiffy Burger? It's a burger with Peanut Butter. My brother introduced me to them, I know it sounds horrible, but just try it. It's mmmmmm good. |

What about Hardee's and Checkers?
Canada doesn't have these joints but their ads make their burgers look really freakin good.

Dairy Queen... makes the thinnest burgers in the world! All you have to do is wave the thing over a lighter and its cooked. I dont like the fat burgers that leave a puddle of blood on your plate. I think it was Bill Cosby talking about the big soggy pink meatball from his parents cookouts. My folks were the same way with the meatball burgers, I guess thats probably why I like them so thin now. |
I childproof my home... and they still get in! |
